Talk about last minute



This is my entry for the Kenny K's Krafty Girlz DT Call, ohh I so want to be on this design team I love the images they are so different and perfect for those teenage cards. I've spent hours drying my card stock with a heat gun so the ink wouldn't bleed, (as I watercolour my images with distress inks) and wasted lots of printed images, aww but it's worth it, I've had a really busy week with work and was panicking I wouldn't get my entry in on time. You can purchase Kenny's images here I've used my forever friends papers, flowers are prima and the ribbon is from my stash thanks for looking hugs Jill xx

Papertake Weekly Challenge




This weeks Challenge at Papertake Weekly is a sketch by Dawny, a nice and easy one, I will be using this again. Papers are SU, image is my new Greeting farm, buttons are BG. Thanks for looking and leaving me comments, even though I'm the worlds worst blogger at the moment, too much going on at work and I'm not getting any me time. I'm hoping by the end of July to finish my 3 quals, and the 2nd pt job I'm doing as it's just not working out with the home/life balance. I will put up some blog candy soon for all those that have taken time to leave me a comment hugs Jill xx
